The place of last farewell

IMG_4362.jpg

City of Volzhsky, Volgograd region. There is an interesting structure in the central cemetery, where you hold farewell ceremonies, a kind of alternative to church funerals. Built in the middle of the last century. When the cemetery closed, the building was abandoned. But despite this, the mortuary constantly attracts tourists even from other areas.

"A mortuary or pantheon is a ceremonial structure intended for mourning funeral rites. It is located on the territory of the city cemetery No. 1 in the city of Volzhsky. It is the only surviving object built on the territory of the former USSR"
